Are you an idiot? No we want ACTION, take it to court. A sternly worded letter to Jack doesn't do shit, it doesn't get the courts involved that's for damn sure. We said this was going to happen leading up to the election, hell we started saying it the day after Trump got in office. Yet nothing fucking happened for 4 YEARS. FOUR FUCKING YEARS.
Don't give that me "the only other option is threatening him with a gun" bullshit, action should have been taken against section 230 YEARS AGO. Yet here we are, nothing but letters.
amen. i'm pissed off. this is brazen infringement on the freedom of speech in an attempt to sway, mislead, or suppress. Why is this tolerated and only met with sternly written letters. We know the problem, it's not twitter. those fucking idiots are free to act however they want with their product. the problem is with section 230 for protecting these ass holes. so, lets start there, Ted. get the fucking ball rolling pal. anything less is just for show. (It was a good letter though)
Unfortunately, it's the press, that is so rotten, who are the ones who should be all over this. Now that the media is being censored maybe they will, but, i doubt it.
"a threat to America’s free press looms mostly unnoticed: Google and Facebook’s dominance of online speech which could do far more damage to the free press than anything the president posts on Twitter.”
No soon you will get Antifa thugs kicking in your fucking door while you scream....rape my wife but just don't call me raaaaaccccciiiiissst in the media.
That's the reality and this is going to be a rough fight. We need to support those that are on the right path even or maybe especially when we don't gets the results we want at internet speed!
Jeb Bush would like to friend you on Facebook. This tired shit I have heard from neo-cons for forty fucking years. It is always the same whiny shit. BUT WE TRIEEEEEED...the fuck you did. You put on political theatre...they are not trying shit and know it. Dipshits like you eat it up every election too, happily licking up any crumbs that fall off these pigs tables just so you can say your "team" won an election at some point.
That assclown Abbott completely pivoted from his stance earlier in the year. He went after the Harris County judge because she wanted to impose mask madates. He pushed to open the state early, which he did.
Then he completely flip-flopped just because the case-testing scam kicked into high gear. While hospitalizations and deaths fall to near zero, he continued to follow his FauXi medical advisor and crumbling before all the screeching Karens around the state. He closed down small businesses like bars and mandated occupancy restrictions. He even closed down river tubing businesses! Then his mask mandate was the final kicker. He has been a huge disappointment in a state that traditionally prides itself on personal freedoms.
I agree. He was fine, and even a star to me until this mask shit and the closing of small businesses. I voted for Abbott, and I was proud of that vote until the freak out he did
Texan here, don't worry, Abbot won't ever get anywhere now. Everyone hates him, including republicans. Multiple big republican orgs have already rescinded their endorsements from him and are no longer giving money to him. Abbott is fucked, any other republican will beat him in any primary he ever runs in. The funny thing is there are rumors he wants to run for president in 2024, no fucking chance. His own state wouldn't even vote for him thanks to his fuckery
We aren't against letters - we are against letters in lieu of action. Republicans have a habit of sending a letter rather than taking action, as opposed to sending a letter and following it with action.
I see this letter as a good start, if followed through, to either removing the section 230 protections from these platforms that are acting as publishers, or if they overtly admit politization, that opens them to lawsuits and legal harassment for providing donations in kind to the Biden campaign by suppressing this journalism.
Yeah, the doomers and blackpillers are definitely one of the worst things about this site. I've started avoiding threads about Barr because I know most of the replies are going to be bitchy one-liners about how nothing will happen.
Trump picked Sessions. Trump picked Mooch. Trump picked Bolton. The man is doing incredible things but he's not infallible - complaining about poor choices is the kind of thing that kept us limited to a few targeted strikes in Syria instead of a Neocon's dream invasion.
Fuck off, wanting to ban people who deal with reality and not fantasy. I bet you're one of those "muh never ending Trump rally" clowns aren't you? I prefer Trump supporters, not a blind drooling cult.
If we lose 2020, the nation won't exist. Trump is the last chance to save this country using the system. Should he be stymied then our great nation will be over.
Of course the tough guy talking shit to everyone that is not satisfied with inaction, letters, and Barr is the first to tuck his tail between his legs and flee America if Trump were to lose.
This is the key. Since moving on the big names before the election would probably have lost Trump reelection due to the complete chaos the D's would have unleashed then all they really can do is expose as much of the corruption they can. Then after Trump gets his second term and optics is no longer a consideration they can do their own unleashing of the law. I mean it's taken almost his entire first term just to clear out enough of the government and install enough judges to ensure any action would actually go anywhere instead of being endlessly stonewalled by deep state assets. This is Trump's october surprise and you can bet far far more is going to come out in the coming weeks. Biden is toast but we still need to get everyone we know registered and ready to vote when polling opens. This is our last chance to reclaim the republic short of hot civil war and I would much rather the first option works.
Yep. We have had four years of blatant abuses of the first amendment in tech/social media. Everything is documented. Hell, Twitter is basically calling all of his tweets a lie now. This fucking groupthink is out of control.
This is how it starts in a legal sense. You ask for a response. Then depending on the satisfaction of the response received, you move to investigation, or squash it. If no response is received, then you issue subpoena.
Ted Cruz has the power to WRITE LAW. If he posted an actual bill that he was trying to pass instead of YET ANOTHER letter to Twitter, Twitter might be more scared.
Have you never heard, especially during spending bill debates, that one side has already passed the bill that would fix the problem? They then campaign that if they only had the other side that their bill would have already passed. It's been done a million times. But asking a company to do something they legally don't have to, like answer a series of questions in a letter, is worthless.
I don't follow your argument. This is how a split Congress works. Nothing except the most bipartisan of legislation gets passed. The Dems absolutely do not want to reign in big tech. They are the sole beneficiaries.
You know, that is gonna happen if this fuckery continues. Except it won't be Ted and it won't be a spanking and instead of hearing the 1A it will be a pop song party.
he can write a bill that cocaine mitch may or may not bring to vote in the senate, and if passed there would then die on pelosi’ s desk. best case scenario, if we can keep the white house and senate and flip the house, legislation can actually be passed and their response, or lack thereof, is used to lay the framework for when the dems sue and take it to the supreme court.
Can I do an inquiry also, it seems fun and I mean if you bat for the right team you can weave glorious tales and be out of focus 20 mins after its done.
Wray doesn't represent every single FBI agent. The actual boots on the ground aren't politicians. By the way the Feds don't just represent the FBI. The DOJ is an umbrella that includes the FBI, DEA, ATF, and US Marshalls. However there are other Federal Law Enforcement agencies under the Dept of Homeland Security such as ICE, HSI, CBP, Border Patrol, Secret Service, and US Coast Guard. The FBI isn't the only agency with investigative authority. HSI actually comes in second to the FBI when it comes to Federal investigations.
99% of time I click a Twitter URL from .win I get an error message. As soon as I reload the page it will load fine as long as .win was not the referrer.
Teddy would be Aces if he had just manned-up and endorsed Trump at the convention. The fact that he refused to do it will always put him one-down in my book.
If this blows up enough, and if say POTUS raises a ruckus over it ( he should), this might be a good thing. This gives enough time before the election for the social media cos to feel the massive pressure to where they might have to be somewhat fair when crunch time happens in the final days. I honestly don’t see though how people haven’t made up their mind yet. To me if you haven’t, you are the worst kind of self important person.
Immediately subpoena Jack Dorsey and Andy Stone. Haul them in front of Congress and make them explain, on camera, why they're actively interfering with a presidential election. Then get somebody awake at the DOJ to file formal charges of election interference.
I'm beginning to have a teensy crush on Ted Cruz. His Zodiac Killer replies... his response to Jim Carrey and even his sternly worded letters. He's my kind of guy.
We need much more than that. Breakup and/or strictly regulate:
Alphabet
Facebook
Twitter
Amazon
Reddit
These are each companies which monetize the user. Because this is their strategy, they are built around extensive data manipulation and invasion. There are many more (too many to list here) which are consulting firms that get hired out by many of these companies.
Our very Republic is in peril until the politicians stop fiddling and start going after these companies.
This is a point that must not be lost on the naysayers. Winners don't quit because the task ahead looks daunting.
No, it's just that all we get are letters. We want action. If all we get are sternly worded letters, then it really doesn't matter.
What do you think laws are? They're words on paper. This is how the process starts.
Do you want Cruz to pick up an m16 and kick in Jack's door?
No, I want law enforcement to do that.
Are you an idiot? No we want ACTION, take it to court. A sternly worded letter to Jack doesn't do shit, it doesn't get the courts involved that's for damn sure. We said this was going to happen leading up to the election, hell we started saying it the day after Trump got in office. Yet nothing fucking happened for 4 YEARS. FOUR FUCKING YEARS.

(It was a good letter though)
You are exactly correct. This is more frustrating than prom night.
No, we want him to go all Zodiac Killer on Jack's ass.
I want his father to do it...Zodiac Killer style
Unfortunately, it's the press, that is so rotten, who are the ones who should be all over this. Now that the media is being censored maybe they will, but, i doubt it.
"Complaining about a problem without proposing and implementing solutions is called whining"
-teddy Roosevelt
Ted doesn't want a solution. He wants trump to go awayy

Soon we'll get nothing, because all we got are letters.
No soon you will get Antifa thugs kicking in your fucking door while you scream....rape my wife but just don't call me raaaaaccccciiiiissst in the media.
It's not as simple as everyone thinks. Action against Big Tech will destroy the stock market.
Inaction against big tech companies will destroy the country
I will give up all 20 years worth of my 401k if it will save this country.
That's the reality and this is going to be a rough fight. We need to support those that are on the right path even or maybe especially when we don't gets the results we want at internet speed!
When Ma bell was broken up the economy was not destroyed. Don’t fall for the propaganda.
I've heard this before and have trouble believing it. It's worthlesss value for worthless services. Then again we have a make-believe service economy.
Does social media actually produce anything? They won't be missed.
Fuck you cuck. Go suck Abbot's dick through the hole in the mask he makes you wear.
Jeb Bush would like to friend you on Facebook. This tired shit I have heard from neo-cons for forty fucking years. It is always the same whiny shit. BUT WE TRIEEEEEED...the fuck you did. You put on political theatre...they are not trying shit and know it. Dipshits like you eat it up every election too, happily licking up any crumbs that fall off these pigs tables just so you can say your "team" won an election at some point.
Democracy with universal suffrage, unrestrained immigration and a massive welfare state is a failed system
So democracy with Jews
Republic.
Masks are bullshit and Abbot is a cuck.
I will not trade any liberties for false security.
That assclown Abbott completely pivoted from his stance earlier in the year. He went after the Harris County judge because she wanted to impose mask madates. He pushed to open the state early, which he did.
Then he completely flip-flopped just because the case-testing scam kicked into high gear. While hospitalizations and deaths fall to near zero, he continued to follow his FauXi medical advisor and crumbling before all the screeching Karens around the state. He closed down small businesses like bars and mandated occupancy restrictions. He even closed down river tubing businesses! Then his mask mandate was the final kicker. He has been a huge disappointment in a state that traditionally prides itself on personal freedoms.
Yep, I don't see much difference between him, Jared Polis of CO or Gavin Newsome of CA.
Making sweeping orders based on false data and fear that impact the freedom of everyone in the state.
I agree. He was fine, and even a star to me until this mask shit and the closing of small businesses. I voted for Abbott, and I was proud of that vote until the freak out he did
Texan here, don't worry, Abbot won't ever get anywhere now. Everyone hates him, including republicans.

Abbott is fucked, any other republican will beat him in any primary he ever runs in. The funny thing is there are rumors he wants to run for president in 2024, no fucking chance.

Won't vote for him, definitely not.
We aren't against letters - we are against letters in lieu of action. Republicans have a habit of sending a letter rather than taking action, as opposed to sending a letter and following it with action.
Obviously each situation is different, but in this situation...
I see this letter as a good start, if followed through, to either removing the section 230 protections from these platforms that are acting as publishers, or if they overtly admit politization, that opens them to lawsuits and legal harassment for providing donations in kind to the Biden campaign by suppressing this journalism.
Cruz should have issued a subpoena at the very same moment he issued the letter. McConnell should have personally ordered such.
That would be exceptional!
Yeah, the doomers and blackpillers are definitely one of the worst things about this site. I've started avoiding threads about Barr because I know most of the replies are going to be bitchy one-liners about how nothing will happen.
Low energy post. Who needs a forum where every statement is precisely crafted and perfectly measured? Like we are all politicians. zzzzzz
...as nothing happens.
Prove us wrong then.
Has anything happened?
Anything at all?
So basically you're saying you avoid threads where people deal in reality and not fantasy.
No, I avoid threads with obnoxious, defeatist bitching and moaning.
Trump picked Sessions
Fuck off ban Nazi
Easy to fix: just point me to anything substantial that Barr has done toward bringing ANY of the coup plotters to justice.
I'll be over here holding my breath, not.
Trump picked Sessions. Trump picked Mooch. Trump picked Bolton. The man is doing incredible things but he's not infallible - complaining about poor choices is the kind of thing that kept us limited to a few targeted strikes in Syria instead of a Neocon's dream invasion.
Fuck off, wanting to ban people who deal with reality and not fantasy. I bet you're one of those "muh never ending Trump rally" clowns aren't you? I prefer Trump supporters, not a blind drooling cult.
bitching and moaning is one thing pointing out that four years almost up and we haven't seen one fucking person in cuffs is another
Quitters don't win because the task ahead looks daunting.
Sometimes it takes 100 swings to bring down a tree. People who give up half way through have no firewood.

If we lose 2020, the nation won't exist. Trump is the last chance to save this country using the system. Should he be stymied then our great nation will be over.
That’s when we’ll need you the most
Of course the tough guy talking shit to everyone that is not satisfied with inaction, letters, and Barr is the first to tuck his tail between his legs and flee America if Trump were to lose.
Whatever you say, coward.
yeah you and all the other celebrities that promise to leave when Trump won. just fucking virtue signaling that's all you're doing
This is the key. Since moving on the big names before the election would probably have lost Trump reelection due to the complete chaos the D's would have unleashed then all they really can do is expose as much of the corruption they can.

Dear God... Lindsay graham's stationary store will cease to exist.
Yep. We have had four years of blatant abuses of the first amendment in tech/social media. Everything is documented. Hell, Twitter is basically calling all of his tweets a lie now. This fucking groupthink is out of control.
Yep, it needs to be labelled as a publisher and be fined heavily for it's censorship.
Plus it needs to be obliterated by lawsuits as well
"We had technical problems... Broken code... A glitch... No one ordered anything... We will look into this... It will be working Nov. 4th... "
BINGO!
... only if we all vote and ensure the D’s don’t own Washington.
This is how it starts in a legal sense. You ask for a response. Then depending on the satisfaction of the response received, you move to investigation, or squash it. If no response is received, then you issue subpoena.
I fucking hope so!!!
Isn't he at the ACB hearing now? Lol
That's what I was thinking, did he type that out on his iPhone under the table
good point
Don't underestimate Lion Ted.
He uses zodiac code for shorthand, the interns decipher and post.
Nah. He used a series of coded messages.
He has been tweeting the entire time. Honestly, I don't blame him.
What do you think toilet breaks are for? Have you learned nothing from the Russian and Ukraine Congress leaks? No pun intended, maybe.
Trump is the best thing to happen to Ted Cruz.
Agreed. Even more, Trump is the best thing to happen to Republicans.
Trump is the best thing to happen to America.
Trump is the best thing to happen to the world.
Trump is the best thing to happen to the galaxy.
Trump is the greatest in the cosmere. A true shard!
Trump is the best thing to happen.
Trump is the greatest thing to happen to the animal kingdom.
I love Trump. He is a leader of Patriots. Patriots are the best thing to happen to America.
I like this. I always pictured the MAGA party with a lion. We should still call it the Lion party, but use a rhino instead.
When our grandchildren ask, "Grandpa/Grandma, why does the Lion party have a rhino mascot?" We can tell them the story of President Donald J. Trump.
"... and that's how the Space Force named their Mars site the President Donald J. Trump Center for Intergalactic Peace."
Could say that for all of Washington.
wow another strongly worded letter, that will show them......
I'm interested in the answer to this question too, strongly worded letter NPCs.
it's not even a "strongly worded letter". It literally states,
--which implies that it will be investigated. That seems like a lot more than a "letter" to me. I, too, am tired of the "strongly worded letter" meme.
Calling for open season on communists and their bosses is the best response.
Ted Cruz has the power to WRITE LAW. If he posted an actual bill that he was trying to pass instead of YET ANOTHER letter to Twitter, Twitter might be more scared.
Twitter has nothing to fear while the house is held by the dems.
You don't get it. Any bill a Repub Senate passes will be shot down in the Dems House.
Have you never heard, especially during spending bill debates, that one side has already passed the bill that would fix the problem? They then campaign that if they only had the other side that their bill would have already passed. It's been done a million times. But asking a company to do something they legally don't have to, like answer a series of questions in a letter, is worthless.
I don't follow your argument. This is how a split Congress works. Nothing except the most bipartisan of legislation gets passed. The Dems absolutely do not want to reign in big tech. They are the sole beneficiaries.
I want Ted to barge into Jack Dorsey's office and physically spank him while reciting the first amendment at the top of his lungs!
You know, that is gonna happen if this fuckery continues. Except it won't be Ted and it won't be a spanking and instead of hearing the 1A it will be a pop song party.
Him calling this out will be just what we need to get people interested.
I hate Big Tech's censorship just as much as you, however, what else does he have the power to do?
he can write a bill that cocaine mitch may or may not bring to vote in the senate, and if passed there would then die on pelosi’ s desk. best case scenario, if we can keep the white house and senate and flip the house, legislation can actually be passed and their response, or lack thereof, is used to lay the framework for when the dems sue and take it to the supreme court.
Circle button
The left throws the book at patriots like gen flynn this is what our side does, sigh.
He's asking on behalf of the Committee if an answer is not received, or they do not like the answer, they may subpoena and open an official inquiry.
Whoopdeedo, just like comey has been to!
let me guess, nobody in a position of authority can recall ever being involved in those decisions...
Ooh an inquiry. I can do one of those over the phone! "Hey Jack did you stick it to those baddy bad links? You did? You did, boy?"
Can I do an inquiry also, it seems fun and I mean if you bat for the right team you can weave glorious tales and be out of focus 20 mins after its done.
The left tried a fucking coup and even though they were caught, there has been only a single arrest of a low level lawyer.
THE CRUZ MISSLE HAS BEEN LAUNCHED.
Incoming Cruz nerf bullet
Kek
Good start. But instead of sending this mail to Jack Whoresi through USPS, have the Feds personally deliver it to him, with a set of handcuffs.
Aww, how cute, you still think the fbi and doj aren’t all corrupt.
Wray doesn't represent every single FBI agent. The actual boots on the ground aren't politicians. By the way the Feds don't just represent the FBI. The DOJ is an umbrella that includes the FBI, DEA, ATF, and US Marshalls. However there are other Federal Law Enforcement agencies under the Dept of Homeland Security such as ICE, HSI, CBP, Border Patrol, Secret Service, and US Coast Guard.

Bump
They NEVER censor all the lies about GEOTUS yet allow this bullshit to be censored???????
They let Antifa organize and fucking China spread propaganda as well.
better than nada...
Oh, this sounds good. Do tell!
as if the republicans will actually do anything about it. so sick of this bullshit and nothing being done. just letters and words.
STRONGLY WORDED LETTER!
Oh noes not a strongly worded letter! We are so fucked when Trump leaves office
How about early morning SWAT raid?
Another strongly worded letter. 😂😂😂
It’s a meme that is now real life.

God fucking damn it. Not one set of fucking balls in the Senate GOP.
Teddy would be Aces if he had just manned-up and endorsed Trump at the convention. The fact that he refused to do it will always put him one-down in my book.
This is why they want everyone to vote early - when these scandals break, how do the fence sitters get their votes back?
Twitter: *Read 3:29pm*
Lion Ted
Fact checked by twitter as false
If this blows up enough, and if say POTUS raises a ruckus over it ( he should), this might be a good thing. This gives enough time before the election for the social media cos to feel the massive pressure to where they might have to be somewhat fair when crunch time happens in the final days. I honestly don’t see though how people haven’t made up their mind yet. To me if you haven’t, you are the worst kind of self important person.
Nice letter...
we need a little more than strongly worded letters. We need officers showing up to Twitter HQ and slapping cuffs on people.
Immediately subpoena Jack Dorsey and Andy Stone. Haul them in front of Congress and make them explain, on camera, why they're actively interfering with a presidential election. Then get somebody awake at the DOJ to file formal charges of election interference.
Or sue them for unreported donations-in-kind to the side that they are trying to prop up
Just sue them for everything and arrest on every applicablr charge. Enough of this censorship bullshit.
This seems like a good time for Trump to switch to another platform, dragging millions of followers to a Twitter competitor.
I'm beginning to have a teensy crush on Ted Cruz. His Zodiac Killer replies... his response to Jim Carrey and even his sternly worded letters. He's my kind of guy.
Strongly worded letters is better than what 95% of the GOP can do.
So when do we Peacefully protest to Twatter HQ and give them a little more than just a letter when they dont listen?
Letters don’t do shit!!!!!!!
Twitter & Facebook regulation when?
We need much more than that. Breakup and/or strictly regulate:
These are each companies which monetize the user. Because this is their strategy, they are built around extensive data manipulation and invasion. There are many more (too many to list here) which are consulting firms that get hired out by many of these companies.
Our very Republic is in peril until the politicians stop fiddling and start going after these companies.
Joe Biden could murder someone in broad daylight in the middle of Park avenue in Manhattan and get away with it...
And that is actually true.
STRONGLY WORDED LETTERS
Lookout boys, another letter
1355 Market St San Francisco, CA
Hmm...do they actually have an office here or just a mailbox? Where are they physically located?
They used to be. Since the shut down, all their employees apparently permanently work from home
Twitter employees "work"
lol thats a good one
Oh boy another sternly worded letter. What ever will twitter do now
